Fred Durst is a douchebag. I know I regret that week I thought Limp Bizkit was cool.

Face it, back in the late 90s these guys were very popular, someone was buying their albums. Now they've reached the point like Vanilla Ice and Hammer before them where nobody will admit to ever liking them or listening to their music.

After taking a break from 2005, the group returned to prominence last month

Huh?

this.

Must be a small town somewhere named Prominencewhere they've half sold out a bar show.

I bought and liked Three Dollar Bill and Significant Other. I didn't buy the rest.

Three Dollar Bill was actually fairly creative. Significant Other was horrible, and everything afterwards was even worse.

I completely agree with you. Although I still find funny the version of "Nookie" a friend of mine used to sing back then "I did it for the nookie, so i could take your cookie, and stick in my pocket, and then I'd eat it later"

I know, lame in print, but funny to see him sing it.

Christi: Fred Durst is a douchebag. I know I regret that week I thought Limp Bizkit was cool.

They first became popular when I was stationed overseas. I came back to the States, and was wondering who the fark these idiots were, because their shiat was everywhere.

The only thing even remotely interesting about the band was Wes Borland, and he quit the band because he thought Fred Durst was a douchebag.

He himself is a douche and has a bully persona, talking about farking people up and stuff, now he is trying to claim to be a misunderstood emo?

What a Dickhole.

Yes, Durst is a douche. But to be honest, I like Limp Bizkit. Significant Other was a good album.

Plus he cast Bill Paxton as a villain in one of his videos. How hilarious is that?

But Nickelback is still touring, right?

Whew! Thank God for that.

Having bullied Durst myself, I can kinda see what I was talking about. But that's what he gets for wearing a Yankees hat at his Boston gig. He got all defensive and claimed his contract forced him to do it. But he deserved it for be the only band (incl. the actual headliners) on the set to take an hour to set up in 100-degree heat.

I probably should give myself the "Cool story, bro" pic for that.

Guilty. I was young and naive at the time. I didn't know what I was doing!

I bought Korn's first two albums and even I didn't buy an Limp Bizkit album.


/secret shame
//heads over to the Slowdive thread.

I thought this was a foregone conclusion about a decade ago.

Where have I been?

/on Mars, in a cave, with my eyes closed, and my fingers in my ears.

I was 18 to 21 in the years where they were popular... EVERY freaking dude I knew, self included was listening to limp bizkit. every party, guys cars... the shiat was out of control. I would cast an unbelieving eye at any guy within a year of my age if he said "ah naw, i never listened to that garbage"

Those of us that still hang out together and hang our heads in mild shame for putting our ears and brains through that regretful mess. Thankfully a good friend introduced me to thrash metal at 22 and the rest became history.

I was around that same age when they came out, if not younger. They blew then and they blow now. Thankfully I was into metal long before these jackholes came around.

I found out years later that Wes' family are friends of my family. Not that I care, but at least he's generally seen as the coolest in the bunch.

Heh he called his music art near the end.

I don't care that these dbags are back together, I actually liked their first album, then they got paid and went to crap, I just hope this all means Wes can spend more time making more Black Light Burns albums. His first album was one of the most under rated albums of the last 5 years. With all the talent he had on it the thing sounded so damn good from first to last track. If Wes has to put in time playing these shows to secure more money for BLB I am all for it.

On a related note does Fred Durst have a forged birth certificate? I find it hard to believe he's less than 10 years older than me. He's aged 20 in the last 10.

You really need to familiarize yourself with Mozart's later works. I wasn't a big fan of the guy (I'm a classically-trained violinist) until I learned more about him. He was the World's first rock star. Big time.

I was in high school when they were popular. I know a lot of people must have listened to them but the only one I saw admit it was the troubled geek that everyone wasn't too sure about. Rock sucking so hard in those days is the reason I started listening to Sabbath and Zeppelin instead.

I wasn't really aware of them when they were big, but one night I was flipping through the channels and saw something on MTV where he was somewhere in NYC talking to Carson Daly via cellphone and was going to make an uscheduled appearance on TRL. At the time I thought, "Wow, what a galaxy-class fame-whore." I think that was about the time everyone started hating his guts.

Maybe he's still looking for that significant other.

You're not farking kidding!! I had to look twice.

I was 13 when Nookie was big on MTV. That led to me internet music discussion forums. Without LB, my collection isn't made up of NIN, Tool, Faith No More, Helmet, Jane's Addiction, Soundgarden, and AIC by time I'm 15. If Wes is still in the band when they tour the states, I'll go. Go ahead, point and laugh at me on the internet.

I laughed quite loud at that.

I laughed quite loud at this actually.

But yes, he's old and balding, and he spent his younger days with a hat on. His hair is having it's revenge.

I didn't know that Fred Durst was the janitor from my old high school!

DalaiLamaDingDong: I didn't know that Fred Durst was the janitor from my old high school!

That was a pile of WTF, even Tom Green didn't know what to do with that douche.

Hmmm...Limp Bizkit...oh yeah, right, I remember literally sleeping through their set at Ozzfest back in '98. My buddy pretty much summed it up. He said: "Is someone playing a Korn album at the wrong speed?" and then he went to sleep.

I was a big fan in 5th and 6th grade. KoRn and Limp Bizkit were our fists of fury against the girls who voted for *NSync and BSB on TRL.

By the time I hit junior high, I realized how much they sucked.

Wes Borland is awesome, though, just based on his knowledge of circuit-bending.
Kinda feel sorry for Fred these days.

From Day 1 those guys were just a massive shiat burrito wrapped with Rosie O'Donnell's shaved-off pussy lips.

Fred Durst pissed off the city of Chicago, and he paid for it dearly, with many shoes to the head. Ah, that was a fun concert.

I kinda didn't mind "faith", but like, in a "I know this is stupidlame, but It's catchy" kinda way. I hated everything they were ever involved in, including the Method Man song produced my Primo.

and I was 15 when it came out. You farkers who were older than 17 should be ashamed and STILL claim that their first album was good, shaaaame.

Ah yes, I remember Limp Bizkit playing at some parties and in our car. I was already listening to tr00 and kvlt metal before that though. You see, back then, it was always good to have Limp Bizkit in the stereo. It was considered "party" music, something with guitar distortions that didn't directly chase the girls away. Trust me, listening to Vader, Kreator, Destruction, Massacre, Suffocation, though cool, turned any fun party into a sudden sausage-fest where the only long-haired persons were the metalheads who insisted on headbanging the whole night and starting their own moshpit in the livingroom. Yeah, that drove the ladies wild........................................................as they stampeded out of the room.

/did it for the nookie

I don't. He made millions of kids think that listening to rapcore/numetal - which by the way isn't music but giant dick-wagging - made you cool.

Fred Durst's reason for Limp Bizkit taking a break? He realized that Megan Fox was bisexual.

bush: Fred Durst's reason for Limp Bizkit taking a break? He realized that Megan Fox was bisexual.

Wait, Megan Fox is bisexual? Are you sure?

Fred Durst should just shut up. His time in the spotlight came and went years ago. His opinion doesn't mean crap to anyone anymore.

Fred Durrr has said this same sheyat sooo many times before in interviews. Its almost as if Durrr really believes if he says it enough we will forget how bad the music sucked.

WE WILL NEVER FORGET!
NEVER AGAIN!
*whispers* neeeeever again you bald farrrrrrrk

FTA: "They were using my music as fuel to torture other people"


Yep, that's pretty much how I feel whenever someone plays Limp Bizkit anywhere remotely within earshot.

He was decent as the bartender in the S4 finale of House.

I refer you sir, to the current Van Halen lineup.

/found out those bands without Limp Bizkit. Seriously, it's not like any of those acts are obscure or anything.

In the 90's, I liked Limp Bizkit and had their poster on my wall. I grew up. Hooray!
